My Chemical Romance - Cancer

ug messed up the synch between the chords and the lyrics , but you’ll figure it out ,
you’re smart .

the intro is just E and B .
E
turn away ,
B C#m
if you could get me a drink
Am
of water ’cause my lips are chapped and faded
E
call my aunt marie
B C#m
help her gather all my things
Am
and bury me in all my favorite colors ,
A a#halfdim B
my sisters and my brothers , still ,
Cdim C#m Am
i will not kiss you ,
F#m B E
’cause the hardest part of this is leaving you .

E
now turn away ,
B C#m
’cause i’m awful just to see
Am
’cause all my hairs abandoned all my body ,
E
oh , my agony ,
B C#m
know that i will never marry ,
Am
baby , i’m just soggy from the chemo
A a#halfdim B
but counting down the days to go
Cdim C#m
it just ain’t living
Am
and i just hope you know
E
that if you say ( if you say )
eaug
goodbye today ( goodbye today )
C#m C# *
i’d ask you to be true ( cause i’d ask you to be true )
F#m B C#m * *
’cause the hardest part of this is leaving you
F#m B E
’cause the hardest part of this is leaving you

* the guitar/piano stays on C# , but the bass plays C# B A G# . it’s possible to play the
bass note under the C# triad , but it’s not necessary .

* * same idea . the guitar/piano stays on the C#m , but the bass plays C# C B A# .

here’s how to play the chords on guitar . ( going from low E to high E )

E – 022100
B – x2444
xc#m – x46654
Am – x02210
A – x02220
a#halfdim – x12120
Cdim – x3424
xf#m – 244222
eaug – 032110
C# – x4666

xhope this helps!
